I like the front splitter....nothing else. Any variants out for front splitters? A more integrated look?

Dare I say a good looking kit from AC? They've been getting better with their recent releases.

I would say they "had" a name at one point, E36, E46 days IMO. those days are long behind them , now they seem more of an overpriced company trying to find their way back to the market using importers. just my 2 cents

+1 I'd like a decent looking splitter too.

Usually I just want carbon, but given all the black gloss on my car, I'd be happy with that.

Agreed. I think the piano black would look best.

They've always had the name. Their products are top notch quality. I had the complete kit back in 2001 on my M3. Soup to nuts. Including silver carbon fiber interior trim and roll cage (which I still have)They were ahead of the game. I'd say after e46 the wheels weren't looking so hot. This X3 M looks good tho wheels included. Their stuff was always expensive.

Were you on M3Forums back then? I have an 05 E46 with most of the AC Schnitzer items also.

Anyways, there are probably more ACS haters than anything, but those interested, the US pricing seems to be available for the

X3M:
https://preisliste.ac-schnitzer.de/a..._auswahl=71400

and

X4M:

Hope the links work. I don't work for them or get any compensation, I just happened to see on ACS USA Instagram today that pricing was available.

That's what a lot of people said when the front lip for the E46 M3 came out. There was like 30% with genuine ACS lip, then 70% of some sort of knock off. Or maybe 25/75, or even less!

I like the springs and the aluminum pedals. Would love to see the dyno data for their piggyback vs stock. Wheels are ridiculously expensive for simple cast wheels. Same price as top forged Vossen or HRE wheels.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if I got it soon anyways. Sticker shock, give it a week and I'd probably say that's a deal compared to what 3D Design probably comes out with

yes, I would love to test drive one before buying it. What exactly did your rear part feel? Is it just the high end torque going up or did it feel improved over the whole range?

[r33_RGSport]

Uh, $1295 for Eibach Spring.

Their pricing used to be better. At least 50% cheaper.

While the aerokit still decent.

But, I bet guys will be searching on Alibaba or Ebay for them.

It happens all the time, even recently with G01/G02 front splitter. They were $800-ish unpainted, Ebay or Alibaba was $100 something painted.

I am one of their dealer, but since distribution change last summer, it is tough to sell AC Schnitzer now.

It was improved over the whole range. Also, I didn't drive from a dead stop most of the time, but the few times I did start from a stop, I did notice that the lag people complain about was less. Also, with the lowered springs and 22" rims, I would have thought the ride would be stiffer and harsher, but in fact, it felt more comfortable than stock in comfort mode. While I can't be sure that I am said "customer", read the reply by AC Schnitzer UK in the comment section...maybe they read this forum

I guarantee people will be going after the made in (insert Asian country of choice here) knock offs. As stated above, 70-75% of the AC Schnitzer front lip of the E46 M3 days were knock offs.

I wouldn't say a knock off anymore.
I would say, factory leaks.
